Hokey Pokey is located inside the Century City Mall. I recommend parking near Macy's, second level. Hokey Pokey is just around the corner from Macy's. It sits right on the end.
I love a eatery that has a story and Hokey Pokey has a story. Hokey Pokey is a special toffee from New Zealand added to ice cream. In 1953, an ice cream maker added the toffee to ice cream and it has been a hit ever since. Hokey Pokey is the most popular ice cream flavor in New Zealand.
What did I try? 1 cup of Raspberry & White Chocolate Real raspberries blended into a tangy soft serve topped with white chocolate pieces and raspberry dust. It darn-tootin' delicious. Fresh. Not overly sweet. You can taste the raspberries and white chocolate pieces. The cup is $6.
Inside is decorated cute with booths to sit at. Not a big location but given it is in the Century City Mall, plenty of outdoor space to find a seat and enjoy your soft serve ice cream. Right outside the entry are these tiny round tables - I like the twist on them. You sit on the bench created from the windows and place your ice cream on the tiny table. Cuteness overload.
Century City Mall offers one hour free parking. Keep that in mind. When I arrived, Tuesday around 1pm, no line. I walked right in. Given other reviews, Hokey Pokey is popular and a line can form.
They only sample Hokey Pokey because all other soft serve is made to order.
For the price, location, and deliciousness - it's definitely worth a stop. Get your New Zealand soft serve ice cream and do the Hokey Pokey because that's what it's all about -...
   Read moreHoney Pokey LA, located at Westfield Century City Mall, offers a delightful take on New Zealandâs beloved Hokey Pokey ice cream, a flavor invented in 1953 thatâs become their signature. This isnât your typical soft serveâitâs crafted in-store, to-order, using premium Californian ice cream or a non-dairy base thatâs impressively rich and creamy, closely mimicking the real deal. The Hokey Pokey itself is a standout, blending light, crunchy golden toffee (made fresh in-house) into a smooth, velvety soft serve thatâs both nostalgic and indulgent. What sets Honey Pokey LA apart is their commitment to freshness and customization. Every flavor, dairy or non-dairy, is blended on the spot, resulting in a richer, creamier texture than standard soft serve. The non-dairy option is a pleasant surprise, delivering a robust flavor that doesnât feel like a compromise, though they note potential traces of dairy due to the blending process, so those with severe allergies should take caution. Speaking of allergies, theyâre transparent about nuts being used on-site, which is a thoughtful heads-up. Overall, Honey Pokey LA delivers a unique, high-quality dessert experience with a fun nod to New Zealandâs ice cream heritage. The Hokey Pokey is a must-try for its perfect balance of sweet, toffee crunch and creamy softness. If youâre at the mall, itâs a fantastic spot to satisfy your...
